I Just Had A Thought About Renting Kitchens

What about daycare kitchens? They have to be licensed and they are closed on nights and weekends, right? I'm wondering if this might be worth looking into, has anyone ever done it?
Sorry, I thought I was posting this in the cake deocrating business forum.
I too thought about this.... then I was wondering about liability and insurance issues... the DC I grew up in is still around and my family is pretty good friends with the 2women that own it... I haven't gotten the nerve to ask yet!
Here's an idea; write them a letter and let them know that you are interested. It would be a business proposition and they would make money off a kitchen that is otherwise sitting there not being used.
the real question is how do we pay them, percentage of cakes made or usage time and what would be reasonable... those are the things I don't know about!
hmm, i dunno but this gets me thinking
people have in home liscensed day cares
actually a couple in my neighborhood do, and their kitchen is NOT seperate from the rest of their home
but for me to be liscensed in home for baking, my kitchen has to be completely separated from the rest of the living space... no open air designs...
southrnhearts- same goes for me, I have to have a completely different kitchen... who has the money for that in their house....?????? NOT US! That does throw up some questions though, how can they feed kids in their home without having the kitchen licensed... I guess we can't argue laws.
well ive never thought about it...
but now that i am, its annoying the crap outta me... grrrrrrr! 
when I worked for a privatly owned daycare our kitchen had a seperate lincense from the rest of the day care and was evaluated seperatly but our daycare didnt even have a stove it was just a sink and a fridge and a microwave and we wernt suppose to even use the microwave. I think you would have to find a day care with a full scale kitchen I dont think a lot of daycares provide full on meals for the kids anymore must is just bring from home.
Yeah that really doesn't make any sense. My neighbor has a daycare and doesn't have to have a licensed kitchen. I live in a small town and the only daycare (that's not in a home) is the local YMCA. There kitchen consists of a refrigerator, sink, and small scale stove. I don't think it's licensed.
My son's daycare has a full kitchen with fridge, stove, microwave, etc.. They fix breakfast and lunch for the children. That's something to think about with the daycares. I don't know how in home daycares work in my town though, my son attends a center daycare.
I run an in-home daycare. I never thought about that. I have a person from the food program come and make unannounced visits. She marks down if kitchen is clean and so forth, but no one checks anything. They just give us reading material on proper food handling, hand washing, fridge temperature... I suppose the difference is I'm not selling the food. Yeah, I'm makimg money, but I'm not profitting from the food. It is kinda silly though.
